37 - Lentil Salad [Lentejas en Enselada]

 I'm writing this after possibly one of the most unlucky days I've had in a while. Still I survived to make another dish. Trying to be healthy this week and stick to a limited budget so sadly the next few tapas are far from exciting. I had a feeling this one wouldn't be that exciting but felt it was worth a shot..

The Verdict:

While ham and lentil go well together in soup, as a cold salad its bland, and while it would be refreshing on a summers day, on a wet spring evening it didn't quite cut the mustard. Still there was a nice balance of flavours just overall the texture was mushy and bland. Waiting 45 minutes for it to cook was also not that fun. But it was light, healthy tasting and refreshing, would rather have have lentil soup

Taste :      3/5    Average

Time  :      2/5     45 Mins

Visual :      2/5    Errr.... maybe not.

Magic :      2/5    Leave It To Soup
